---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Rescission in Part

    Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1), the Secretary will rescind an 
administrative review, in whole or in part, if a party who requested 
the review withdraws its request within 90 days of the day of 
publication of notice of initiation of the requested review. The 
aforementioned requests for review were timely withdrawn and because no 
other party requested a review of the aforementioned producers/
exporters, in accordance with 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1), with respect to 
these producers/exporters.

Assessment Rates

    The Department will instruct U.S. Customs and Border Protection 
(CBP) to assess antidumping duties on all appropriate entries. For 
those producers/exporters for which this review has been rescinded and 
which have a separate rate from a prior segment of this proceeding, 
antidumping duties shall be assessed at rates equal to the cash deposit 
of estimated antidumping duties required at the time of entry, or 
withdrawal from the warehouse, for consumption, in accordance with 19 
CFR 351.212(c)(2). For those producers/exporters for which this review 
has been rescinded and which have not been assigned a separate rate 
from a prior segment of the proceeding, the Department stated that they 
belong to the PRC-wide entity and that the administrative review will 
continue for these companies.\4\

Notification to Importers

    This notice serves as a final reminder to importers for whom this 
review being rescinded, as of the publication date of this notice, of 
their responsibility under 19 CFR 351.402(f)(2) to file a certificate 
regarding the reimbursement of antidumping duties prior to liquidation 
of the relevant entries during this review period. Failure to comply 
with this requirement could result in the Secretary's presumption that 
reimbursement of the antidumping duties occurred and the subsequent 
assessment of double antidumping duties.

Notification Regarding Administrative Protective Order

    This notice also serves as a reminder to parties subject to an 
administrative protective order (APO) of their responsibility 
concerning the return or destruction of proprietary information 
disclosed under APO in accordance with 19 CFR 351.305, which continues 
to govern business proprietary information in this segment of the 
proceeding. Timely written notification of the return/destruction of 
APO materials or conversion to judicial protective order is hereby 
requested. Failure to comply with the regulations and terms of an APO 
is a violation which is subject to sanction.
    This notice is issued and published in accordance with section 
777(i)(1) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended, and 19 CFR 
351.213(d)(4).
